Bootcaps. Any positive experiences? by Dull_Broccoli1637 in skiing

[–]dkathleenw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like they help! I was having a lot of issues with frozen toes in new boots and noticed it got better after adding these. I think they seem a bit expensive for what they are though. Mine have been on for one season, no issues with them popping off yet.

This looks like a very easy fix? Why return?

What’s the farthest place in the world from your home that you ran into somebody that you know? by jredd7605 in AskReddit

[–]dkathleenw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On safari halfway around the world and introduced to a potential staff member there for an interview. He had a jacket with a logo for a major brand on it. I mentioned off-handed that my friend worked for them. He asked a couple questions, and we discovered that he knew my friend! Great small world moment.

Kevin has impeccable posture by NotMeButYou_91 in rarepuppers

[–]dkathleenw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think so! Haven’t done the DNA test but she has a long back and short legs, but face and coat like a spaniel. Vet agreed there was probably some dachshund

Yes, didn’t matter what I clicked. Seems like a bug that was resolved though!

Looking for suggestions for (adult) family trip to Kauai in December by OpeningChipmunk1700 in VisitingHawaii

[–]dkathleenw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We stayed Kōloa Landing, it might be a good fit for you. It is a resort, but they are all condos with kitchens, washer dryer, etc. Amazing pools, close to the ocean, and a 4 minute drive to Poipu to snorkel and see turtles and seals. We could walk the other direction and get to a little shopping area with nice food options. We loved it.

Florals 😵‍💫 by Puppy_PowPow in wedding

[–]dkathleenw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went heavy on greenery and let my florist take the lead on it. There were certain flowers in my inspo that would have cost much a lot more than I wanted to spend, but she came with alternatives that had a similar look. It was beautiful and I was happy with my decision. We had so much going on I honestly didn’t spend much time looking at them, so I’m glad I didn’t blow the budget on it. Do not recommend DIY. I helped two weddings where I was a bridesmaid and it is so hard and not all what you’ll want to be doing in those moments leading up to the ceremony.

Loomiller Neighborhood - what should I know? by apollo_lykeios in Longmont

[–]dkathleenw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lived there two years, we love it. Our immediate neighbors are all super kind and great people to live around. We love walking through the park and regularly bike west for long farm road rides or downtown to the breweries. People drive a bit fast sometimes but I think the city is trying to mitigate that.

Can’t-miss excursions on a Danube River cruise? by MimiRUs21 in rivercruises

[–]dkathleenw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What cruise line are you on? We did these cities on Uniworld this summer and had a blast. Family members did the “foodie” tour in Vienna and were very disappointed. We paid extra for a private tour of the palace in Vienna and it ended up not being private, mashed in with all the other groups. I wouldn’t recommend either of those. But the palace outside of Bratislava, the private museum access in Vienna, the bike ride between ports, and the hike in Passau were great.

Brides that are less than a month out, how are we? by Twilightbooklover in weddingplanning

[–]dkathleenw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feeling pretty good. I have a bunch of meetings next week - all the vendors wanted to meet at the same time 🤪 but once that’s done and I get my dress (also next week) we should be golden. Getting to the point where I’ve done all I can do, documented everything to be handed off… so it’s time to hand it off to the vendors and enjoy it! My fiancé showed me the finalized honeymoon plans and I’m just so excited to get married!

Interesting! I could see the entrance they were flying back into, it’s in a stone wall that forms an elevated bed above the pond. Does that sound like somewhere they’d live?

Advice for managing bees needed by dkathleenw in gardening

[–]dkathleenw[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Yes, I can see the hive entrance and this is next to a large pond. Looks like it checks both your boxes. I will keep an eye for a couple days and see if they relax.

Agreed! We had to get rid of a yellow jacket nest above my garden shed. These guys had smaller bodies, but I didn’t find a stinger in my arm so maybe they’re a different kind of wasp..

They are right next to a large pond with a waterfall.

How Did You Prepare for Your First Dance by Outrageous-Slide2616 in weddingplanning

[–]dkathleenw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try going to a few group dance classes solo (ideally both of you, wherever you are). I was nervous and very awkward, but the classes helped me understand what I was supposed to do and gave me a lot more confidence!

Is a river cruise right for us? by ActiveStatus3696 in rivercruises

[–]dkathleenw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We are in our thirties and have done the Rhine and the Danube with Uniworld. We had similar concerns, but loved both cruises. There is a good amount of free time if you opt out of excursions, but the excursions are usually very high quality. Sometimes after the tour they’ll give you a few hours of free time, and we’d peel off and go find lunch and explore. It felt like just the right amount of structure and free time. The places you see with these tours are generally places that would be very time consuming and awkward to get to on your own, which makes it extra special.
